Revisiting Warlock

[johnfrank1970]

Back in the day, I got into Warlock with True as Steel. I liked Triumph and Agony to a lesser extent. I listened to their first two, Burning the Witches and Hellbound back then as well, but I never got into Hellbound and only had a passing interest in Burning the Witches. I recall trying a Doro solo album or two but never liking what I heard.

Today, I listened to all four albums. Old schoolers will love my conclusions.

I decided that a compilation would be best, as most of the tracks on each album are not worthwhile to me, the exception being True as Steel. I should get that CD.

Burning the Witches (1984)

After the Bomb
Burning the Witches
Dark Fade
Sign of Satan

Hellbound (1985)

Out of Control
Time to Die
Hellbound

True as Steel (1986)

Fight for Rock
True as Steel
Speed of Sound
Mr. Gold
Love in the Danger Zone (acceptable hair metal)
Vorwarts, All Right!

Triumph and Agony (1987)

Kiss of Death (acceptable hair metal)
I Rule the Ruins

I am certain that Matt Johnsen, of Pharaoh, did not tell you to listen to Warlock.

Warlock - Greatest Hits, essentially.

Who is that? Dropping band member names is lame, man. Poor form.

It is Matt of KillwhitneyDead approved.

Doro had the best voice of any female metal singer I have heard. Her Dio cover (Egypt)The Chains Are On rivaled the original. She had some good songs, but her material was sporadic to me. I would have to make a compilation as well because I can't make it through a whole disc of hers without skipping, be it Doro or Warlock. Great voice, nice on the eyes and a very nice person as well, but she needs a little better songwriting for me, personally.

I always liked what WARLOCK I have heard, and saw them once opening for Megadeth back in the day. For whatever reason I never picked up any of their stuff. I should probably change that.

Never heard Leather Leone (CHASTAIN) then, right? Doro is good, but....
